For Mary Riter Hamilton, capturing the emotional landscape of battlefields and graveyards in the months after the Great War's armistice became an artistic calling and defined her work. This book recovers a body of work that stands as a unique and enduring portrait of the effects of the Great War.

Reading European & North American naturalism through the lens of feminist & Foucaultian theories of power, the author argues that twentieth century naturalism increasingly deconstructs itself in its depiction of sexuality, inevitably exposing the genre's internal ideological contradictions.
